* ScrewedByTheLawyers: [[SubvertedTrope Subverted]]. Marvel did not realize that they didn't originally have the rights to Ego. Instead, his rights were with Creator/Fox, likely because of his ties to the ComicBook/FantasticFour and ComicBook/SilverSurfer franchises. Since Gunn did not have any other characters in mind for [[spoiler:Star-Lord's father]], he had to ask Fox if he could use the character. Surprisingly, Fox actually agreed to this, on the condition that they have more creative freedom regarding Negasonic Teenage Warhead in ''Film/Deadpool2016''.
